Premium has a higher octane which is better for the cars engine, it also burns better and there is less emissions and better fuel economy...The extra money can be saved by the extra mileage you get out by usung the premium..I use the premium and find that I get about an extra 80 klms to the tank..

wow! is it really that much better? at first i got the impression that only high performance cars benefited. but if it can get 80km + in one tank, it might just be worth the extra money

Thats just my car, but it has been documented to save petrol on the mileage for every vehicle, depending on engine size of course and how it is driven (city, freeway etc...)
